Quote #10
"He talk like any other cracker. What make him different he de firs' one I ever seen ain't try to act like sump'n he wasn't. De mos' is so shame of what dey is." (111.80)
The family's love for Ol' George is adorable, but what strikes us most about this passage is that they love him because he's true to his own heritage. Their dislike of "crackers" doesn't stem from a dislike of them as people, nor their culture, but rather their denial of their true selves.
